Committed to diversity and equalityCommitted to diversity and equality

The School of Literature, Drama and Creative Writing is fully committed to providing a fair and equal environment for work and study. As a Faculty we are preparing to participate in the new Gender Equality Charter Mark when it is launched in November 2014.

The Dean of Faculty is a proactive member of the University's Equality and Diversity Committee and feedback from students and staff is increasingly sought on a range of issues as the Faculty has highly diverse populations and works hard to ensure a supportive and inclusive environment in which all can flourish.

The University has a range of policies to facilitate a supportive working environment:

Flexible Working

Returning to work after illness

Following a period of ill health, we offer support for returning to work. This may include access to a phased return, short term amendments to duties or working hours, or adjustments to the physical environment.
